54 and 5 stone overweight - is it too late!
HELLO - It is starting to feel like it's too late! I find it difficult to follow a long-term plan that's needed to lose 5st - it more than likely needs 2 years to achieve this.

Does this ever end?
Well I've lost 48 kg (106 lbs) but I still feel like I need to lose at least 15 more kgs (33lbs). I recently noticed that i've been very obsessive about getting thinner at all costs, so maybe joining a community will be a good step towards getting over my never ending wish to get thinner and thinner.

Medical Condition Tracker
Would it be possible to add a tracker for medical conditions or similar? For example a way to enter the time a migraine started with notes. It would be great to be able to overlay this data with food/exercise data to help determine triggers. It may also help to track things like time medications were taken, bathroom…

Need advice for stress management strategies

Keto Newbies! (Cravings are fat cells BEGGING)

Fell off the wagon during pandemic
Hi everyone, I was on the right track back in 2019. I had lost 55lbs and going strong using this app. Unfortunately, with the pandemic, I gained all of it back and +10lbs more 😩.

Newbie! Anyone in their late 50s up for a Buddy system?
I have finally accepted the fact that I am an emotional eater. After losing 80 pounds, regaining 80 pounds, losing 80 pounds again, and gaining those pounds back again, it’s time to get healthy and stick to this for the last time. As we get older, it gets a little harder. Looking for others who would like to support each…

Returning with renewed passion - Covid years and derailing
So it's been a long time since I last felt like I had control and I know I'm not alone in this, so let's get talking about it instead of bottling it up. Between 2016 and 2018, I managed to lose over 8st (100+lbs). I felt great, I was happier with my weight and the way my body performed. In 2019, I struggled with my job…

There is a theoretical model about stress called the inverted U theory, that states that Imagine an inverted U, you get a normally distributed curve.* On the left you have low stress that can be linked with inaction, letting go and sedentary behavior. * On the right you have chronic high level stress which is also bad for…
